Terry Kemp of MLD Clinic

MLD stands for Manual Lymphatic Drainage which is a very light form of massage that stimulates lymphatic flow in your tissues. So light, it almost feels like nothing. But the results certainly aren’t nothing. I can personally attest to the amazingness that is Terry’s MLD Clinic because I was once his patient.

I used to have crazy allegies – simply looking at a mango would make my lips puff up. I had environmental stuff too – walking down a street with too much traffic would result in major headaches, sinus issues, teary eyes, coughing and general feelings of ickyness. Well, after a summer of treatment, I haven’t had those problems since. Well, instances of those problems have been few and far between whereas they used to be a daily thing.

And because a lot of the work we did was above the neck, the side benefit was glowing, even skin and a less obvious scar over my eye where my darling brother hit me in the head with a baseball bat when I was 5. And he was 15. Story goes I ran out in front of him just as he swung. I have my doubts. And now I have a gap in my right eyebrow. But less so, now that Terry has worked his magic.

So when Terry wanted a few portraits to spice up his website and facebook page, of course I was happy to oblige. His MLD has done wonders to improve the quality of my life, the least I can do is take his picture!
